Fia could feel coldness slowly overtaking her body as her hands by her side curled into tight fists. “Don’t worry. If my grandma is alright, I’ll divorce you immediately!”Her tears rolled down as she gritted her teeth.“As for the project, my grandma had already said it. You have no right to give it to Esme.”“Fine.” Conrad averted his eyes. The woman’s expression and tears made him feel agitated. He even felt somewhat upset. He didn’t want to look at her anymore.“I’ll pay you back twice the market price.”Echo tried to hold back her coughing as she asked, “That project is worth 150 million dollars right now. Are you sure you want to do that?”“I’m a man of my word.”“Mr. Maxwell… You’re really someone who’s willing to sacrifice so much just for your love!” Fia couldn’t help but sneer before quickly moving away while supporting her mother. Eileen’s hand extended past Echo and held Fia. She could feel that her body was cold, so she kept on rubbing her arm.“Don’t worry, Fia. N

Silas stood there and then asked, “Doctor, about Madam Thea…”“Go back.” Fia stopped him. “Remember to tell Mr. Maxwell about what I told you.”“Madam, I want to stay and help.”“No need. There are doctors and nurses here,” Fia said very firmly.She was very disappointed. Her grandma had really fainted, but Conrad had suspected that she was faking it. He didn’t even come and had Silas do it instead. What was the point?After Silas walked away, Jason then asked, “You didn’t tell anyone about your pregnancy?”“Yes. But that’s not important right now. Why did my grandma fall unconscious?”Jason couldn’t bear to tell her the truth. “Your grandmother fainted because of a cerebral hemorrhage.”“Cerebral hemorrhage?” Fia had to support herself with the wall. She had heard about her grandpa from her mother… He had suddenly passed away because of a cerebral hemorrhage when he was fifty.“Your grandmother is quite healthy, and she has no other diseases. If her health was any worse, she

“Silas is not someone like that,” Conrad said as he consoled her.“I’m… I’m just very sensitive. I feel that people around me are all judging as they look.” And with that, Esme glanced at Jason who was standing not far away.Conrad frowned and said, “Then let’s go look at your grandmother together?”“Yes!” Esme nodded. “I’m worried about her as well.”Originally, when Fia thought that Conrad wanted to leave Esme behind with Silas and he wanted to visit Thea together with her, it soothed her terrible mood.But when she heard that the two of them wanted to visit her grandma together, her temper flared again.“Let me go!” Fia struggled again, wanting to pull her arm away.“What do you want exactly?!” Conrad glared at Fia with annoyance. “Can’t you just be as gentle as before?”Fia was stunned as she felt the words cutting her heart again and she struggled even harder.Jason could no longer watch as an outsider and quickly walked over.“Mr. Maxwell, this is a hospital. Please be

Fia looked at the floor and said, “Thanks, doctor.”Jason closed the water bottle and put it into his coat pocket. He then took out the packet of plums that hadn’t been opened yet.“Have some of these. It’ll make you feel better.”Fia looked at the package in his hand with disinterest. She didn’t know what to say, so she simply asked, “What’s this?”The man carefully explained, “Dried plums. Something that most pregnant women like to eat. This brand is known to be very clean so you don’t have to worry if it’s bad for your child.”With that, he tore open the package and then gave it to her.“Here, give it a try?”Fia took one. The plums were individually packaged. Jason took the small packed plum from her hand and tore it open. He then pushed it out and held it to her mouth.“Open.”Fia opened her mouth and ate the dried plum in Jason’s hand in a daze.It was so sour… So sour that it made her remember something from her childhood.She was bullied a lot by kids her age becau

“Is it nice?”“It’s sour,” Fia said as she sniffed and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes. She then forced a smile at Jason. “But it’s delicious.”As she had it in her mouth, she could even feel her stomach feeling better.“That’s good.”He then stuffed the remaining package into her hand. “If you don’t feel that well, eat one of them. You’ll feel better.”Fia nodded. These were things that her husband was supposed to do. However, he was busy taking care of his childhood lover.“How did you know that a pregnant mother will feel better after having some dried plums? Has your wife been pregnant before too?”“No.” Jason frowned and couldn’t help but say, “I’m still single. Unmarried.”Fia was stunned. She didn’t expect someone as learned, kind, and passionate as Jason to not be married yet.“What? You’re shocked that I have no partner?”“Yes. You’re one of the rare doctors. There must be plenty of people that like you.”Jason nodded and said, “Unfortunately, I like none o

“Rubbish! All men are the same!” Eileen growled in anger.Fia grabbed Eileen’s arm and kept her close. “But… I just can’t accept it. Especially when I see her in his arms.“What right does she have? What right does she have to take him back when she abandoned him three years ago? Does she think that she can have him back whenever she wants? We are the ones that are married. She has no right to ask me to give him up to her.”Eileen grabbed Fia’s arm and said, “If you can’t accept it, let me give you an idea. Don’t hide the news about your pregnancy. Instead, we have to let everyone know! Not only do the Maxwells need to know, but we also want Esme to know about it too. We want the entire Gryphon city to know about it! Let’s see if Conrad will kill his own child for his first love!”When Fia heard the word “kill”, she shuddered.“What if… He really wants me to abort my child for Esme?”Eileen instantly went silent. She knew that there was nothing more she could say, as the decision

Fia could hear the commotion inside her grandma’s ward when she arrived outside.She quickly walked in. Then, she heard her eldest aunt’s, Beth Lawson’s, sharp screech as soon as she stepped into the room.“You must be getting senile! What right do you have to give that project that Uncle Maxwell and you worked for to Fia? Isn’t it enough that she stole Esme’s rightful place as Mrs. Maxwell? Is that still not enough?!”“Please, Beth! I beg you! Mom’s health is deteriorating!”“Who do you think she’s fooling? She’s always been healthy! The only reason that she’s admitted to the hospital is because she wants to use this as an excuse to stop Fia from divorcing Conrad!”“Beth! Mom isn’t pretending!” When Echo saw that her mother was so angry that her face was turning pale, she stood up with difficulty to pull at Beth’s arm.“Don’t touch me! It’s all thanks to you that our family’s reputation is destroyed! Your daughter and you are birds of a feather!”Beth pushed Echo away and advan

During the yearly family gatherings, her Aunt Beth would always say how good her husband was in front of her and her mother. She would say how well their company was doing and expanding.Saying that she had a good life even without depending on the Lawsons, unlike them who were being supported by Thea.She never thought that they were actually depending on her uncles’ goodwill!Her three uncles did very well in Gryphon. They all had their own companies and cared a lot about family.Every year, her uncles would shower her with gifts even after she was married.Of course, so did Esme.During the three years that Esme was overseas, her uncles would directly transfer money to Esme’s bank account instead of giving gifts.Her uncles treated her and Esme the same. They had never treated one better than the other.“And now, not only are you not grateful that you used our family to transform a little hoodlum like Hank into an entrepreneur, but you’ve also even set your eyes on destroyin

She was not worthy of him.Right from the start."Wait a moment."She lowered her head to treat the wounds of a mother and son, then stood up with the medical kit and smiled at him."Shall I treat you to a meal?""Sure."She led him through the damp and moldy alley to a shabby restaurant.She ordered two bowls of noodles in the local language, sat down at the old table, took out a handkerchief, and wiped it vigorously.Conrad looked at her. It was obvious that she was different from before.She had gone through hardship, suffering, despair, and then settled down.The noodles were not delicious. There was no oil or salt, and even the soup was bland and tasteless.He looked at her sallow face and said, "Is this what you've been eating the whole year you’ve been here?""This is considered a good meal." Annie did not complain and said that she usually just ate some steamed buns.The conditions here were poor and backward in various ways.Moreover, Lucifer was determined to ma

Fia stood on the streets, looking at the photos and remembering what Lucifer had once mentioned."When everything is over, how about I take you, Adrian, and Irene on a trip?"The man's blue eyes were like the sea, looking at her deeply.She fell into a daze for a moment back then.After coming back to her senses, she replied without emotion, "You should find a partner and travel around the world, and I should live a good life with my children."The sound of car horns on the road brought Fia back from her thoughts.She looked at the blue sky and white clouds and remembered the beggar boy she met on the bridge when she was a child.If he hadn't been taken away that day, would it have been different if he managed to wait until she and her mother went to find him?The days ahead were still very long, and she was not sure whether she would be able to live peacefully with Conrad in the future.But she would never swallow her anger like she did before.Later, Conrad, a decisive char

Irene whimpered, turned around, and hugged Adrian. "Adrian, does Daddy not want us anymore?""No, don't talk nonsense! Didn't you hear what Daddy just said?""I heard him, but why do we have to choose? I won't be happy no matter who Mommy marries.""Shut up!" Adrian was a little anxious. If this silly sister of his said in front of everyone that their mommy could marry two men, it would be over!"Why shut up? Why can't we be with Mommy, Daddy, and our biological dad..."Adrian immediately covered her mouth. He knew that this sister of his could not speak normal words!Everyone in the audience also had mixed emotions. Those who originally complained about Lucifer’s actions all became quiet at this moment.With Lucifer’s blessings, Conrad took off the mask.Fia looked at him, tears rolling down her face.How much she had wished to have a wedding back then. She did not expect it to be so many years late.Conrad said with difficulty, "I didn't expect him to do this either."He w

"Do you really want to stop the wedding?" Lucifer smiled half-heartedly, looking at him like a fool.***"What's going on? Why hasn't the groom come yet?" Everyone couldn't help discussing.Fia stood on the stage and exchanged looks with the emcee.Both of them were a little tired from standing.The emcee asked her awkwardly, "The groom?""He should be coming soon." After Fia finished speaking, the wind blew and revealed her face under the veil. "Just wait."The emcee cursed internally. 'It's really rare to have a wedding with such a beautiful bride kept waiting.'Fia fiddled with the veil on her head to cover her face, making her hazy beauty even more attractive.Just as everyone was waiting impatiently, the music suddenly changed to a more passionate one.The groom appeared.Wearing a black suit with gold threads and a blue rose on his chest, the six-foot-two man wore a golden mask on his face.With just one glance, Fia’s heart suddenly jumped and her body temperature bec

The two kids could only rush back to find their mother and tell her what happened.Fia did not panic. "You were raised by Daddy. Don't you trust him? He is a man who keeps his promises. He said he is just inviting them to the wedding, so they are just attending the wedding."Even though she was suspicious in her heart, she would not speak ill of him to her two children.This island belonged to Lucifer, and his spies were everywhere.If he was infuriated, no one stood to gain anything from it."But that person was not arranged to sit down. He was taken into the woods," Adrian said anxiously.Fia turned to look at her son. "Are you worried about him?"Adrian could not look directly at her.Irene spoke first. "I'm the one who’s worried. I don't want them to fight.""Oh." Fia reassured them. "It should be fine. Today is a special day. Your daddy will not want to see blood."She thought Lucifer was simply afraid that Conrad would cause trouble, so he brought him to the island to l

Amused, Lucifer said, "Those people are not under my command.""They gave you all the companies under their names. You said you'd let bygones be bygones, but if you go back on your word, how will your subordinates see you?"Fia’s eyes were a little arrogant.Lucifer’s expression turned cold and he stared at her and said, "How important do you think Hellish Training Camp is to me?""Then give it away!" Fia raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of teasing.Lucifer was speechless for a couple of seconds and explained to her seriously in a rare instance, "Those people have sacrificed a lot since they started following me. I can't ignore them. Except one day when there is a more suitable successor. I will take the initiative to give up my position.""Then you have to lead them well." Fia smiled slyly.Lucifer gritted his teeth with hatred. "Marrying you is equivalent to marrying a housekeeper. From now on, must everything I do have your permission?"Fia said, "Invisible shackles."On

"I got it.""Thank you, Daddy!" Adrian kissed him twice on the face. "My sister and I will take care of you until you die.""Hahahaha!" Lucifer could not stop laughing. "Okay, I'll wait until you two grow up to see me off."He smiled while carrying Adrian and walked to Fia and Irene.Irene was eating something and said vaguely, "Adrian’s temper is getting worse now, and he lost his temper with me.""Who is angry with you!" Adrian slid off Lucifer. "Who do you think you are, that you can influence me?""Mommy, Adrian is shouting at me!" Irene pouted.Adrian turned his back. "Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore."Lucifer and Fia looked at Irene."Mommy, Daddy, what are you looking at me for?" Irene blinked, looking innocent.Lucifer sat down beside her. "Adrian should love you, but you should also respect him.""Didn't I respect him?" Irene was a little confused.Fia said, "While I'm still here, you just spread rumors that he is angry with you."Irene replied, "But he was

Eileen returned to the living room."Is she really going to marry Lucifer?" Victor asked nervously.Eileen remained silent.Victor threw the spatula in his hand. "Can't you stop her for a bit?""Why should I stop her? No matter who she marries, she will always be my best friend!" Eileen said angrily. "Whoever wants to stop her should stop her on their own!"Victor saw that she was angry and quickly picked up the spatula. "I'm going to cook."Eileen rolled her eyes at him, sat on the sofa, and scrolled through her phone.Thinking of Adrian and Irene, she could not help but feel a little irritable.What if Fia and Lucifer had a child in the future?For the happiness of the two children, she forwarded the photo sent by Fia to Conrad.After Conrad received the photo, he immediately ordered everyone under him to put down all work and find the location in the photo.Three days later.The wedding on the island was beautifully decorated, dreamy and gorgeous, with Lucifer’s involvem

Soon, Fia knew what they were doing with just a little of the decoration showing.Decorating the wedding venue.Irene was a little girl who was very happy when she saw balloons and pink ribbons.She ran over and grabbed them, but her brother, Adrian, slapped her little hand."Don't cause trouble!""So beautiful! These uncles and aunts were invited by Daddy. Can't I play with these things?"Adrian pinched her cheek and said, "That's Daddy decorating the wedding scene for Mommy!""What?" Irene immediately retracted her hand and said with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry. I didn't know."Adrian rubbed her head and said, "It doesn't matter. Don’t simply meddle. It should be beautiful when it's done."Irene nodded, took her brother’s hand and hid under a nearby coconut tree, and spent the whole day doing nothing except cooking and watching them.By evening, the dreamy and beautiful wedding scene was mostly completed.Irene leaned against her brother and asked dully, "Daddy and Momm
